When I got out of the shower that night I heard Claire screaming from the bedroom. Eve, Michael and I rushed in the bedroom and we all saw Claire's water broke. I looked with my eyes all wide and gasped.
"The baby…She is coming!" Claire cried.
Shane's POV
It was time. My time to be a father. I always told myself that im going to be a better father, after what I went through with my drunken dad and my dead mom and sister I swore I would never let that happened to my family. I just hope I can make keep that promise.
Claire's parents came an hour after I called them, they were so pissed off about the whole pregnancy and it was like the proposal situation. I blame myself for just having such a gorgeous face that it makes people hate me.
"How is she?" Mrs. Danvers asked.
I looked up from the chair I was in and said. "She's coming along." I looked over at my sleeping Claire and smiled as I watched her face look so peaceful. I held her hand. She then started to stir and open her eyes. "Hey sleepy head your parents are here."
Claire looked at her parents and just started to glare. "Why are you two here?"
"We wanted to see our grandbaby born." Her dad said. He looked like he really just wanted to get this over with. Made me sick really. I don't know why but he was never supportive of Claire.
"Last I remember you wanted nothing to do with me and you called my husband numbers of names then shoved him out the door which makes me wonder again why the hell are you here when you basically disowned me." Claire spoke so cool it was kinda scary. I saw their face turn into mixtures of emotions.
Flashback
We sat on her couch for what it seems like forever in silence. And it was awkward silence. I cleared my throat and said. "So Mrs. Danvers, Mr. Danvers…we have to tell you something." yes they make me still call them by MRS. And MR. even though im married to their daughter.
I and Claire held each other hand in support and we looked at the irritated parents.
"Well?" Claire's dad spoke. His tone. Not friendly!
That's when they noticed that Claire has a baby bump from being 4 months pregnant. "Oh my go! Are you pregnant!"
Claire nodded. "Shane is the daddy. Of course. We wanted you to know."Her parents looked at her in disgust and disappointment then they looked to me.
"This boy is your fault!" He dad bellow. He always had a temper. What a drama queen. I mean he is worse then Eve and I when we throw fits.
"No it isn't daddy." Claire shouted back. I never really seen her yell at her parents. "You should be happy for us! For me!"
"Why cause you dropped out of classes just to marry this son of a bitch and get knocked up by him to!" His words sent me straight to my feet and let my anger out.
"For one thing Claire is still in fucking college! For two she is nineteen almost fucking twenty! And for three im not the one who sent your fragile girl here to fucking Morganville!"
"Shane please calm down." Claire asked in a motherly tone that it tends to calm me down. Her father and mother got up and glared at me.
"You know nothing about little Claire! She was too young to be away from us!" Her mom cried out. I looked at her then locked eyes with Claire's dad.
"Its your fault cause you couldn't keep it in your pants!"
"I waited till it was legal at least I didn't knock her up at seventeen then leave her like some of the ass wholes do in this shit of a town! Enough about who's at fault we should be celebrating with Claire cause she is holding your grandchild."
"If it was a non slacker husband then maybe but since its you then no. we are not happy about this! You need to get it aborted or adopted! This idiot will just leave you once it becomes hard!" I looked at him then when I heard Claire growls I looked at her.
"How dare you speak about him that way! And suggest adoption isn't an option neither is killing the poor thing!" That got her dad furious and all red in the face. He then grabbed me and pulled me to the front door and then he pushed me out of the house. I couldn't get my balance and so I fell down the porch and onto the grass. I saw my wife at my side in seconds. I sat up slowly, grunting with pain. I looked at her parents.
"You are not my daughter if your staying with that piece of shit." Her father declared.
"Wait a minute! Your disowning me!"
"That's right! You're a disappointment!"
"Funny how I get pregnant at the same age that mom got pregnant. You're a fucking hypocrite!"
"Claire!"
"No seriously. Who needs parents who don't support you! You know what…fuck you. I hope you don't regret losing your only kid and your grandbaby!" she screamed and ran to our car. I got up and looked at them.
"This is just low. Even for you two. At least I am supportive."
"Excuse me?"
"Well im saying if im such a slacker and no good then why am I the only one who is supporting her. Who is actually happy….whenever her own parents left her. You're the disappointments not her. Remember that when your older and has no child cause you two were selfish and non supportive." I simply said and left them speechless. For once.
End of Flashback
"I called them baby. Even though we had a spat they should know."
"No I meant what I said. They will not be in mine or Alyssa's life." Claire said not taking her eyes off her parents.
"Claire-" Her dad started but was cut off.
"No. Do you not get how much it killed me when my father, the man I loved and my mother, the women who gave me life disowning me? No. Im tired of feeling that im a disappointment to you both." I saw tears coming out of Claire's eyes and then she started crying. I watched helplessly as my baby cried and I saw a site that I never thought I would see. Her parents are hurt and pained.
"We over reacted Claire. We are so sorry. I know we said some things but we came here to hope to make it up to you. You aren't the disappointment we are. We as parents should of supported you. Even though your young, your happy and if he makes you happy then we will deal with it and make ourselves happy. We love you baby and we just couldn't handle letting you go."
Claire looked up in shock and amazement. She wiped her eyes and sniffed. "If I forgive you you're just going to pull this again. I always say sorry then you guys hurt me again."
"We do Claire and this time we will make the change. Shane was right and im glad he told us what we were."
"Wait…. What did he say?" She looked at me with a what the hell look.
"He made us realize that we were being total…ass wholes and well we just lost our precious child." Her father came to her and held her face softly. "I was losing my little girl that I tucked in every night. That I read stories to. I gave piggy back rides to. I was losing her….no I lost her when you left us…"
I actually felt sorry for the guy now. I watched as Claire looked at her daddy with tears streaming her face now.
"Oh daddy." Claire choked and put her hand on his palm.
"When I realized that I was losing both my daughter and grandbaby then I had to give up."
"Daddy, you never lost you little girl. Even thought im not 5 or 13 anymore doesn't mean I cant be your little girl. And just think you can spoil Alyssa and do all the stuff you did with me." She kissed his palm and wiped her face. He kissed her head and smiled then turned away before we could see his tears come out.
Her mom looked at her and shuffled over. Moved Claire's hair from her face then smiled. "Im sorry to my dear Claire. I felt the same way as your father. I just hope I don't lose you…."
"Of course not mom. I-I admit that im still hurt but I will forgive and hope to forget. I love you guys to much to really….disown you."
Her mom nodded and kissed her head. Just then Eve and Michael, Mike in his daddy's arms entered the room and looked embarrassed that they interrupted something.
"We're sorry, we didn't know-"
"No its okay. We were about to go get something to eat." Her dad said and kissed Claire's head then walked out. Her mom did the same thing and left closing the door.
Eve sat on the couch and Michael joined her, letting down Mike but still holding him by his torso. Mike looks like he is about 2 years old now. Wow that's what I call a fast grower.
"Well Claire and her parents made up."
"That's wonderful."Claire smiled and looked at me. "May you asked the doctor for a wet washcloth. I don't feel so good." I got up and kissed her lips.
"Anything you want baby." To watch that smile light up that face of hers made my day. I got the doctor and came back with a cloth and saw her all sweaty.
"Are you okay?" I dabbed her face with the cloth and she shook her head.
"She is having contractions. About 3 minutes apart." Eve spoke.
"She is about at 9 centimeters right now." Michael added.
"How do you know."
"Nurse came in to check up on me and she said once I hit 10 then I will be going to the delivery room." Claire spoke. I smiled.
"Your close then."
"Close enough." A voice made me turn around to see the doctor.
"What's up doc?"
"Well it seems like at this point we can go on with the process."
That's when Claire started whimpering and crying. I went to her and see if she was okay. "Another contraction." Eve told.
The doctor checked on Claire and then looked at me. "You sir are about to have yourself a baby." He grinned and with that Claire was rushed to the delivery room after her contractions were turned into her screaming in pain.
-8 hours later-
Shane's POV
She is still giving birth, for eight hours shes been at this. Finally after the forth hour she got a little rest but was awoken to do it all over again. It killed me to see her in pain but amazed me by how much she could bare and she is doing. I held her hand all the way through and damn she had a good grip.
"Baby my hand your hurting my hand." That earned me a glare.
"Want to talk about pain? Be birthing a child for eight hours out of you virgina then come talk to me about pain!" I nodded and took the pain like a man would.
By the nineth hour she was done trying. She started to cry so hard that I almost thought she was gonna pass out on me. "Baby you can do this."
"No I cant! Damn it she isn't coming out!"
"Try harder baby I know its so much but just think of holding her in your arms. Watching her go to school then having to love her so much! You can do this baby! I know you can. Come on sweetie!" I encouraged as she started pushing more then finally we heard a scream and a cry and I saw the doctor holding our Alyssa.
I looked at Claire and smiled. "You did it baby!"
She smiled and started laughing. Soon after we were settled in the recovery room the doctor brought us our baby girl.
"Do you have her name?"
Alyssa Eve Collins" We both chimed and then went back to our baby as the doc was filling out the paperwork. Eve, Michael and Mike joined us after the doctor left. Mikey sped to us and looked up at us. I picked him up so he could have a look.
"Who is that?" He asked. He had Eve's little voice. Which was cute.
"Alyssa." Claire spoke and kissed Alyssa's head. Alyssa had my hair, Claire's eyes and my nose. She had her mommy's facial structure which was a good thing. Mike had a face of confusion and curiosity. Claire's parents visited for a while and we all had a great time.
All in all it was a wonderful time.
